Why did early astronomers incorrectly
presume that the planet we know as Venus was
two different bodies they called "Phosphorus"
and "Hesperus"?

The Greek astronomers thought they were looking at two different planets. Phosphorus was the"bringer of light" when it appeared as the morning star. Hesperus brought good things home as darkness arrived when it appeared as the evening star. The astronomers were influenced by their beliefs in the gods and goddesses and associated the celestial bodies with the various deities.

Explanation: Actually Phosphorus is the planet Venus when it appears as the morning star. Hesperus is the planet Venus when it appears as the evening star. Babylonian astronomers had recognized the single planet; Greek astronomers later adopted this concept. Aphrodite was the Greek goddess associated with the planet later named for her Roman counterpart, Venus.

A. The annual growth rate in Egypt in 1990 was 31 - 9 = 22 per 1,000 people. The estimated annual growth rate in 2010 is 25 - 5 = 20 per 1,000 people.

B. I feel like Egypt is in the third stage (Late Developing) in the Demographic transition model because the birth and death rate was higher but then as time progressed, they both started to level out. In order for Egypt to advance in the model, they will have to have a developed country (urbanization) and lower their birth/death rates through the use of birth controls and healthcare.
